Origin OF Il Popular Song.

Mr. Seaman is ono of the few actors who
really compose their own songs and words.
The usual way is to get some orc to write a
song and then sing it as their own compost
ton. But no one ever accused Mr.. Seaman
of doing anything like that, for he can sit
down and write a song before you i'll half an
hour, although it might not be very good I'M
less the inspiration was OH him. That simple
little melody is his masterpiece, and he will
sing it as long as be lives Do you know how
he came to write 'Pcck-a-Boo." MI. Seaman
told about it at the West hotel the other day
81 was sitting in nook in my home on
Fourth avenue, New York, one day about
eight years ago." said he. II was looking
over some songs of Samuel Lovers. You
know that the music for them is lost and I
had an accordion in my hand trying to pick
out tune that would fit them. While was
doing SO some children were playing about
tho door, With children's curiosity they
peeked in at mc. l saw them and began to
say ''Pcek-a-boo," nodCling my head at tho
same time. Unconsciously, the accordion
played few notes to suit what | was saying.
Tho idea struck me. | dashed Off the chorus
of the song on an envelope and wrote astanZa
or two Aftcrward | finished the song. The
music came naturally. l could hear it rum
ming through my head while was writing
tn. song. That is the history of 'Pccii-a-
Boo. "-Minncapolis Journal.

THE CASS CASE
Causes a Great Deal of Trouble
TO the ministerial Party.

Causes a Great Deal of Trouble
TO the Ministerial Party.
LONDON, July 6.-In the House OF
Commons to-day William Henry Smith,
the Government Leader referring to
the action of House last night
in the Cass case, said the
House acted under a wrong impress
sion in thinking that the government
was opposed to an inquiry into the mat.
ter. 1t was the duty of the government
to institute full and impartial inquiry
in order to establish the truth in conuec-
nection with the arrest of Miss Cass.
A SPLIT IN THE CAMP.
The conduct of the government over
the Cass affair has caused discomfort
even among the warmest supporters of
the ministry. The explanation made in
the House of Commons was heard in the
chilliest silence except when Smith an
nounced that the Lord High Chancellor
would institute thorough inquiry into
the matter. In consequence Of the
feeling in the Conservative party,
Matthews has offered to resign the office
of Home Secretary. He has been re-
quested, however, to remain in office
until the close of the present session OF
Parliament.
Two nights will be allowed
for debate on the third reading of the
Crimes bill. If the opposition endeavors
to prolopg the discussion the govern
ment will move that the cloture be ap.
piled.
